Unlike other financial institutions that need to raise outside capital, Blackstone operates with very little leverage at the corporate level. 与其他需要从外部融资的金融机构不同，百仕通公司层面运营所使用的杠杆率很低。
That in turn means banks can borrow abnormally cheaply, giving them an incentive to maximise leverage and risk-taking again. 这也就意味着银行能以极低的成本融资，而这将促使银行再次最大化其杠杆率和风险承受。
